CALHOUN MONUMENT WHEN COMPLETED.
The par value of the securities held by
the Monument association on March L.,
1861, was $50, $40. That WAS about one
month before the first gun of the great
civil war was fired in Charleston harbOr,
and then followed four years of inteTnecine
strife. The women of South Carolina did
not forget the dead statesman, but they
devoted their efforts for caring for the liy-
ing soldiers. The money that had been
raised tor the Calhoun monument was
committed To the keeping OF Mrs. NJ. Ara
mmtha SnOwden, the treasurer OF the as
sOciatiOn, who believed then, and still he
Iieves ~ firmly in John c. Calhoun ~ she
does in any of the saints in the church
calendar. She converted the money into
the best securities, and during the whole
of the four years of dcSOlating war remain
ed faithful to her trust. She lost her own
property but she preserved the monument
fund. On the night of the burning Of Co
lumbia by Sherman's SOldierS-in which
city she had taken refuge-she stitched
the Calhoun securities in the folds of her
dress and passed through the fire and
smoke Of that dread ordeal with safety.
The war was followed in South Carolina by
the era of reconstruction. During all this
period the Ladies' Calhoun Monument
Association preserved its organization, and
patiently waited for the day when they
could carry out the work which they had
undertaken nearly generation before.
No definite effort to cOnSummate its OBJ
jeCt mas made, however, until 1876, when
the association resolved TO begin the work
of building the monuments A commit
tee Of thirteen gentlmen, with Major
Henry +. Young, of Charleston, ms
chairman, was appointed to aid the aSsOcia-
tiOn in carrying out its plans. Four years
afteTWaId, in June, 1850, after wide CORES
pondenee, Mr.. Albert E. Harnisch, an
American artist residing at Rome was Sc
lected to design and build the monument
At that time the funds OF the Association
had accumulated until il amounted to $54,-
l9L77. The contract with Mr.. HarniSch
provided for a bronze statue of Mr.. CAL
hOun, to be erected upon a pedestal of
South Carolina granite and surrounded at
the base with four allegoFieal figures repre-
senting Truth, Justice, Constitution and
History. The price agEeFss. upon for the

CHARLESTON, s. C., April 2G.-The
monument dedicated in this city TO the
memory of John C. Calhoun stands in the
foreground of Marion square, within a lew
wards of the broad thOrOughlare which
bears the name of Calhoun, in front Of
the South Carolina Military academy.
The history of the monument is a part of
the history OF South Carolina. Mr.. Cal
houn died on March 81. 1850. In January,
1851, eleven ladies met in Charleston and
formed an association to aid the Calhoun
Monument Association in collecting =
sum sufficient to build monument
to the memory of John C.. Calhoun.
The result OF the formation OF the
Ladies' Calhoun Monument association
was immediate encouragement and sub
st2ntial success. by the end of the first
years work of the association the sum Of
.. 900 had been secured. II was then lie
termined that more active canvass should
be made and so the women all over the
State went from house to house unwearied-
w., receiving dollar here and dollar
there, until i'm ISIS the funds had in
creased 50 ~ 10 warrant the association in
undertaking To erect monument that
